How Do You Use Setpoints and Relays?
When designing systems for automation or maintenance monitoring, capturing high-accuracy force data with a load cell is only the first step.…

Sensors Provide Intelligence for Safe and Automated Hoisting
Integrating Interface load cells, load pins, tension load links, and load shackles into hoisting equipment provides real-time force and weight data. Measurement sensors provide accurate data for overload protection, WLL, load balancing, alarm systems, weighing, equipment monitoring, and testing. Smart hoisting and automation utilizing sensors increase safety, ensure compliance, and prevent catastrophic failure.

Using Instrumentation to Set Alarms for Force and Torque Measurements
Interface load cells and transducers are often paired with instrumentation devices that include alarm features to create a system that can monitor data from the sensors and trigger alerts when specific conditions are met. Instrumentation alarms are crucial for safety, process control, equipment protection, and quality assurance in various industrial and laboratory settings.

Why Use a Limit Switch in Force Measurement?
Limit switches can prevent equipment damage and enhance accuracy in force measurement. Interface TechTalk defines a limit switch and how these safety devices protect load cells, prevent overloads, and improve control in testing. Discover use cases for limit switches, including in aerospace testing, cranes, industrial automation and lifting heavy objects.
